This week The DVD Savant takes a look at Criterion's Double Disc Special Edition of The Killerswhich pairs both the 1946 and the 1964 versions of the Noir tale, Artisan's budget release of Copacabana an amusing, script-challenged musical comedy that has to rely on the personalities of Groucho Marx and Carmen Miranda to stay afloat, Paramount's 2002 version of The Four Feathers a huge disappointment which is a PC-ridden rethink of a classic , Columbia TriStar's Living in Oblivion is an hilarious and insightful comedy about the pitfalls and insanity of low-budget moviemaking and Image's DVD of Death of a Salesman which is enough to make one a convert to serious stage drama. Read all this and more in this week's DVD Savant.
